Re: Minnesota Metrodome roof has caved in: Viking-Giants NFL Game Postponed
Everything caves in or falls down in Minneapolis, MN. Interstate 35 bridge collapsed, Metrodome collapsed... shit all the architects in MN only work with tinker toys and erector sets -- NONE of them know how to build anything of duration.

What a shame.

If I were the University of Minnesota graduating these asshats that can't build shit I would be highly embarrassed.

Tsk, tsk...


The company that designed the Metrodome was from the UK.

WTF do Limeys know about snow?
That's what happens when you don't buy American and hire the Gin drinkers.
Minnesota should secede and become part of Canada.
The Canuks know their snow.

They collapsed the roof to keep Brett Favres streak intact!!! There was NO way he could have started so they "pulled" the dome


+1 ;-)
 Quoting: Older Floyder



it ( the roof) was pulled in 81', 82', & 83' because of damage and snow...only interrupted the Twins games a little.

so they purposely deflate it to prevent further damage...

could that be any more of a metaphoric statement for the Vikes !

Or who's buried in Grant's tomb.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1110690

That's actually a trick question and was quite popular back in the day, since no one is actually buried there - Grant and his wife are both entombed there however.

The trick is that you can usually prove the person wrong unless they answer just like I did above. If they say Grant - you mention his wife, if they say both you say no one is buried there - they are entombed.

OMG! Why do I care?

The taxpayers will care as well as the people who own fantasy football teams. It's also an odd weather anomaly for this much snow to accumulate in an area (and on a building) that should be able to withstand large amounts of snow.
 Quoting: 2012gregg


Odd? You're not from around these parts, are you?

The Met has collapsed before from snow. It happens.

WTF?
The engineers didn't plan for two feet of snow in Minnesota?
How can you build a "domed" stadium that can't withstand 19 inches of snow in a northern climate?
This is why we are Doomed.

Re: Minnesota Metrodome roof has caved in: Viking-Giants NFL Game Postponed
we have a new retractable roof going up in Vancouver. 700 million dollars and counting.

Now we learn, it cannot close in the rain. (when open, folds get full of water and it's too heavy to close). Brilliant!

A near billion bux for a skylight? In a recession? Post Olympics too. Taxpayers dollars, bread and circuses. And still homelessness, health care funding issues, political upheaval, undisclosed debt. HST promises broken, Illegal hospital union busting, bc rail sale conflicts of interest corruption exposed, Olympic Village bankrupt. Leaders bailing.

And still no social housing?

They should build stadiums underground. Since it is public funds, why not build something useful for civil defense. An underground stadium would be useful in the event of war, solar storms, catastrophes of all varieties.

With underground stadiums, they could put big signs in the parking lot informing people to go to the stadium in the event of earthquakes, pandemics, alien aggression, interplanetary impact, supernova, ice age, nuclear catastrophe, bioterror, and nanotech robot attacks.

Signs should use icons because nobody will read a big long wordy sign. Just put some pictures on it. They would also make excellent FEMA camps.

The game was rescheduled for Monday night at 8pm, but might not be played at the Metrodome

They should be well stocked with water, juice boxes, pop tarts, and spam. They could have an internal power supply, solar and petro; It could be an underground city. On second thought, start building Malls, parking garages, hospitals, etc underground; build it all underground.
